Continued: How to Develop
a Winning Attitude
4. Clarity of Values - Man must first determine which things
in life are most valuable to him. He must determine his
feeling
about such things as patriotism, pride, love, freedom,
excellence, ownership and tolerance. These are values
in
society, the moral, ethical and fundamental judgements that we,
as individuals, deem important. Without a clear system
of
values for ourselves, it is impossible to believe in something
with a passion that has no value to us. Once we have
established our individual value system we are then able to
determine how we can achieve success based on our priority of
values. What must we five up in one hand to accomplish
what we
desire on the other. Without a value system we can never
move
forward for we may be trading without increasing our potential
for success.
5. Energy - Without the physical vitality to take action,
nothing would ever come of our system to this point. The
passion could build, our belief of accomplishment could be
overwhelming, we could have the best strategy or map to achieve
the ultimate value for our own life, but if not for taking the
first step, nothing could ever be accomplished. Great
success
cannot be separated from physical, spiritual and mental energy
that allows us, compels us, to accomplish the most with what we
have to work with. Physical energy comes from the strength
of
the body itself fueled by our intake of nourishment. It
is
therefore important that we fuel our engine with premium fuel
(good eating habits), not low grade regular (junk food). Our
spiritual and intellectual energy evolves from our environment
and it is therefore important that we assess our own personal
environment to maximize the energy that we can obtain.
